A crisp update on all that’s happened at Capitalmind this week – Saturday Coffee with Capitalmind. ☕️
Markets this week: The CNX 500 advanced 2.3% with Metals, Telecom, Chemicals outperforming the most while Healthcare, IT and Services lagging.
The podcast is back! 🎧
Two questions from the global context –
- Are the recent problems – GME, Greensill, and Archegos – signs of a damaged financial system that is so terribly fragile that a slightly bigger disaster can easily crush us?
- Like what Covid has done to the world’s health system, are there more hidden risks in our financial system that can trigger a repeat of 2008?
In this episode, Deepak and Shray explore what’s happened in the US over the past few months, and examples of hidden leverage within India – Karvy, Zee, DHFL, and Harshad Mehta.
Capitalmind Passive portfolio is eating active funds for breakfast 🚀
Capitalmind’s Passive portfolio – a smart combination of Index funds – is now among the best performers of all large cap mutual funds, any time in the last three years.
We don’t really do “clickbait” titles for our posts but when we do, we make the content worth it.

Slack: Talking everything markets and a little more!
All premium subscribers get access to Premium posts, Model Portfolios, and the exclusive slack community. But a few of us miss out on checking the third one i.e the members’ community. This one is especially for them.
In this post, we have Sandeep Rao reflecting on what the Capitalmind community is all about and how it has helped him (and many others) get better. Better not just at investing or trading, but at everything else that involves some decision-making or even skill-building.
